Holiday Sale!

It's no secret, I'm a fan of Vince.

Last winter when I had to brave the cold of Park City, Utah, my first shopping stop was Vince.

Frankly, there aren't many places to go that are a) in LA, b) have actual sweaters - you know, ones with sleeves...that (gasp!) keep you warm, and c) carry attractive winter wear.

Thankfully, there is Vince, and it's that time again! Starting today, Vince is having a sale with up to 40% off select merchandise.

A Gift That Gives Back

Thanks to a great segment on Live with Regis and Kelly, I was introduced to these funky, fashion forward bracelets that give gift giving a new meaning.

The Feed 5 Bracelet ($15) is an affordable, on-trend bracelet made out of corn-based plastic. The really amazing part? The purchase of one bracelet provides FIVE meals for children in developing countries.

Thy leaves are so unchanging...?

So this blog is not fashion related (aaahhh!), but it's such a great concept, I just had to share.

This holiday season, instead of buying a tree that will dry up and shed to death in your living room, why not RENT a tree!?

That's right, you can rent a living tree from The Living Christmas Co., in a pot with it's roots still growing, that will go back to the nursery after the holidays and have a chance to continue growing.

Year after year you can request the same tree, building it right in to your annual family traditions, until it's too big for your living room. Once it outgrows it's ornaments, it will be permanently planted somewhere to make our world a more beautiful place.

Ranging from $50 to $135, this is a great option this holiday season. It's like giving the earth a Christmas present!
